Caution: Indicates a potentially hazardous situation which, if not avoided, may result in minor or

moderate injury to the user or patient or damage to the equipment or other property.

(General Usage)

Always consult your physician. Self-diagnosis of measurement results and self-treatment are dangerous.
Consult your physician before using the device for any of the following conditions:

• If you have had a mastectomy.

• People with severe blood flow problems or blood disorders as cuff inflation can cause bruising.
Do not take measurements more than necessary. It may cause bruising due to blood flow interference.
Remove the arm cuff if it does not start deflating during the measurement.
Do not use this device on infants or persons who cannot express their intentions.
Do not use the device for any purpose other than measuring blood pressure.
Use only the approved arm cuff for this device. Use of other arm cuffs may result in incorrect measurement results.
Do not use a mobile phone or other devices that emit electromagnetic fields near the device except when in use
for wireless communications. This may result in incorrect operation of the device.
Do not disassemble the monitor or arm cuff. This may cause an inaccurate reading.
Do not use in a location with moisture, or a location where water may splash on the device. This may damage the
device.
Do not use the device in a moving vehicle.
Read “If your systolic pressure is more than 210 mmHg” (page 14) of this instruction manual, if your systolic
pressure is known to be more than 210 mmHg. Inflating to a higher pressure than necessary may result in bruising
where the cuff is applied.

(AC Adapter (optional) Usage)

Fully insert the power plug into the outlet.
When disconnecting the power plug from the outlet, do not pull the power cord. Be sure to pull from the power plug
safely.

1.1

Display Symbols

Irregular Heartbeat Symbol ( )

When the monitor detects an irregular rhythm two or more times during the
measurement, the irregular heartbeat symbol will appear on the display with
the measurement values.

An irregular heartbeat rhythm is defined as a rhythm that is 25 % less or
25 % more than the average rhythm detected while the monitor is measuring
the systolic and diastolic blood pressure.

If the irregular heartbeat symbol displays with your measurement results, we
recommend you consult your physician. Follow the directions of your
physician.

Average Value Symbol ( )

The average value symbol is displayed when you press and hold the Memory button for more than 3 seconds. The
most recent average value appears on the display screen.

Cuff Wrap Guide Symbol ( / )

If the cuff was wrapped too loosely, it may cause unreliable results. If the wrapping of cuff is too loose, the cuff wrap
guide symbol appears. Otherwise appears. This is the function which is used as an aid in determining if the
cuff is wrapped snugly enough.

Blood Pressure Level Indicator (Colour)

If your Systolic Blood Pressure is 135 mmHg or above and/or the Diastolic Blood Pressure
is 85 mmHg or above, the blood pressure level indicator (colour) will light in “orange” when
the measurement result is displayed. If the measurements are within the standard range,
no light will appear.

1.2

Before Taking a Measurement

To help ensure an accurate reading, follow these directions:

1. Avoid bathing, drinking alcohol or caffeine, smoking, exercising and eating for 30 minutes before taking a
measurement. Rest for at least 5 minutes before taking the measurement.

2. Stress raises blood pressure. Avoid taking measurements during stressful times.

3. Measurements should be taken in a quiet place.

4. Remove tight-fitting clothing from your arm.

5. Sit on a chair with your legs uncrossed and your feet flat on the floor. Rest your arm on a table so that the arm cuff
is at the same level as your heart.

6. Remain still and do not talk during the measurement.

7. Keep a record of your blood pressure and pulse readings for your physician. A single measurement does not
provide an accurate indication of your true blood pressure. You need to take and record several readings over a
period of time. Try to measure your blood pressure at the same time each day for consistency.

Office Home

Systolic Blood Pressure ≥ 140 mmHg ≥ 135 mmHg

Diastolic Blood Pressure ≥ 90 mmHg ≥ 85 mmHg

3. Using the Device

3.1

Applying the Arm Cuff

Remove tight-fitting clothing or tight rolled up sleeve from your left upper arm.
Do not place the arm cuff over thick clothes.

1. Insert the air plug into the air jack securely.

2. Wrap the arm cuff firmly in place around your left upper

arm.

The bottom edge of the arm cuff should be 1 to 2 cm above the elbow.

Air tube

is on the inside of your arm and aligned with your middle finger.

3. Secure closed with the fabric fastener.

Notes:

• When you take a measurement on the right arm, the air tube will be at the side of your elbow. Be careful
not to rest your arm on the air tube. ---

• The blood pressure can differ between the right arm and the left arm, and the measured blood pressure
values can be different. OMRON recommends to always use the same arm for measurement. If the
values between both arms differ substantially, please check with your physician which arm to use for your
measurements.
